Happy Monday! My desk calendar also informs me that today is the "Queen's Birthday" celebration holiday in Western Australia, so, happy birthday to the Queen, if you happen to live in Western Australia. 🙂 How was your weekend? Mine was good. I do find that despite "looking forward" to the weekend/ no work/ etc... sometimes… Continue reading Non-fall fun weekend 🙂
Once upon a time, there was a man. The man had a much younger brother, who would sometimes travel from a far away land to visit him. The younger brother was grateful to the older brother for inviting him into his home. To extend his gratitude, the younger man would offer to help the older… Continue reading The Parable of the Diesel Fuel
I'm happy to report that Tuesday, September 14, was exponentially better than Tuesday, September 7. 🙂 It was still our "busiest" day of the week....Ethan had piano right after school AND soccer later. Asher had cross country right after school AND swim later. I have to drive to/ from piano, and do CC pick up.… Continue reading A better Tuesday
Happy Tuesday. It feels like it's been a bit since my last regular post, but I guess it was just last Friday. How was your weekend? Mine, again, felt quite full. This is just the reality when Ethan has soccer tournaments (as he did again this weekend). When you have multiple games, spread out across… Continue reading Weekend happenings + misc.
T to the G to the I to the F. This kinda felt like the longest short week ever! Pretty sure that my terrible night of sleep on Tuesday just really kickstarted it to be a bit rough. Plus it's just been a really full bunch of days. But the week has definitely been on… Continue reading 1st CC meet and TGIF
Ohhhhh my goodness you guys. My heart is literally bursting even now like 12 hours later. I have to share this story. So last night was Asher's first "mock" cross country meet (just his own team, at the school, during practice). But they had to run an official course around the soccer and baseball fields,… Continue reading My heart is bursting
I think this weekend I finally hit a wall. We got home from vacation a week ago already on Sunday, and I know that I literally dove head first back into real life in probably too deep of a dive. Oddly though, I felt pretty great last week! Maybe I was riding the vacation high-… Continue reading Hit a wall?
We are currently sitting pretty here on this first week of school, because fall activities aren't quite in full swing yet. I just spent 10 minutes adding upcoming events/practices to my calendar though, so I thought I'd share what's on the docket. ETHAN: đź”·Soccer is his big one. Practice = 3x/ week Monday 5:30-7 (here… Continue reading Fall Activities
JULY RECAP First, it is somehow August. July felt like an absolute blur. When I look back at my planner, it's obvious why. We had family here for 4th of July weekend. Ethan's birthday and sleepover party with his friends. 2 weekends of swim meets, one including a 3 night stay at my parent's house… Continue reading July was packed & pre-vacation week
First, I did finally successfully complete my grocery trip yesterday morning. Store was EMPTY, which I am certain was probably not the case last night or will be anytime today with the holiday weekend upon us. So happy to have a stocked fridge again! It was Ethan's last day at camp and Asher had summer… Continue reading Camp pick-up/ New Month/Social Media
